Volunteer and Job Descriptions​

Starter (Home Meet only)- The starter assumes control of the swimmers on the block until a fair start has been achieved. Requires LAL training and certification.
Referee (Home Meet only)- The referee has authority over all other officials. He/she decides all questions relating to the actual conduct of the meet. Requires LAL certification as a stroke &turn judge for 1 year plus additional training. 
Stroke and Turn (4 needed per meet) The stroke & turn judge ensures swimmer compliance with the stroke, turn and starting requirements as set forth in the rules adopted by the Lynchburg Aquatic League. This individual notes disqualification of the swimmer on disqualification cards that are subsequently approved by the referee. Requires LAL training and certification.
Timers (8 per meet, may vary depending on location) Two lane timers are placed directly over an assigned lane. Lane timers start the stopwatch upon observing the flash from the starting strobe light and stop the stopwatch immediately upon observing any part of the swimmer’s body touching the pool wall at the finish. 
Head Timer (home meet only) The head timer ensures that all lane timers are ready with stopwatches cleared before the start of each race. He/she also acts as a roving timer in case a lane timer misses a start or has a stop watch malfunction. 
Place Judge (2 per meet) Two place judges from each team are required to determine the order of finish for each swimming heat. This job is crucial to event scoring and must be done as accurately as possible. 
Hospitality (Home Meet only) Hospitality volunteers provide refreshments to the meet worker volunteers. 
Runner (2 per meet, Home Meet only) Runners collect all time cards, place judge cards and any disqualification cards from the appointed timers, place judges and stroke & turn judges during the meet. These cards are subsequently delivered to the scoring table immediately following each heat.
